President Edgar Lungu is deeply saddened by the deaths of Supreme Court Judge Elizabeth Muyovwe, Chief Chibesakunda xl, Mr. Timothy Walamba, Mr. Augustine Seyuba and many other citizens who have passed on lately.
President Lungu has described Judge Muyovwe as an experienced and accomplished Judge who contributed immensely to the Judiciary.
President Lungu notes that Judge Muyovwe was an experienced and accomplished professional and an expert in jurisprudence whose expertise will be missed by the legal fraternity.
“On behalf of the Government, the people of Zambia and indeed on my own behalf, I wish to express my sincere condolences to the bereaved family, the Supreme Court and the entire Judiciary on the death of Judge Muyovwe. We share your grief during this difficult time and we beseech the Almighty God for comfort and fortitude. May the Soul of Judge Muyovwe rest in peace,” President Lungu says.
And President Lungu says the death of Chief Chibesakunda XI is a big loss not just to the Bisa people but the entire country.
The President said his administration worked well with Chief Chibesakunda XI, and shared the same vision of developing the rural areas of Zambia.
Meanwhile, the President has hailed Mr. Walamba for his contribution to the welfare of miners when he was a vibrant unionist.
The President said Mr. Walamba equally served the country with dignity when he served as Zambia’s High Commissioner to Ghana under the Patriotic Front administration.
“The Government, the people of Zambia and I mourn Mr. Wayamba. To the bereaved family, our hearts are with you in this time of sorrow. May God Almighty grant you peace as you mourn, May His Soul Rest in Peace,” the President said.
And President Lungu has described the death of Mr. Seyuba in South Africa as another big loss to the country.
“His wealth of experience, particularly in public relations and marketing was exceptional and cannot be forgotten,” the President stated.
The President mourns with all those who have lost their loved ones in this difficult period of Zambia’s history blighted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
This is according to a press statement issued to the media by Special Assistant to the President for Press and Public Relations Isaac Chipampe in Lusaka yesterday.

Lungu/PF mishandled the Covid pandemic …then these people died as a result.
Aba nabo
ECL is a big pretender… When you look at his picture you would think here is a humble man kanshi awe sure….the can instruct his people to close the whole airspace just for him only to fly.
This picture show that President Lungu and his delegation to this Funeral were not masking and social distancing. This is very dangerous and irresponsible behaviour. Breaching Covid 19 Guidelines has consquences. Covid-19 doesn’t discriminate and Politicians are not immune from this deadly disease. Mass gatherings at Funerals ,Churches ,Weddings, Political Rallies,Schools etc are Covid-19 Super Spreaders. President Lungu and his PF Officials will leave to regret violating Covid-19 Guidelines. The writing is on the wall.
Defective drugs are all over people are dying and nothing is been done kuli ba honey bee and those involved.
No social distance, no masks

Mr Samuel Mukupa. A person ever close to the president naku braii stand eibako.
My humble leader. Less wamaka
No masks and no social distanceing ka
I don’t know where the humbleness comes in all i see is a man with very low self esteem, no confidence.The people who take advantage of these personality flaws are the ones who he has allowed to surround him.
